More details The ongoing conflict in Ukraine's Kursk region has intensified, with Ukrainian Armed Forces tirelessly repelling Russian assaults despite challenging conditions. Contrary to claims by Trump and Putin, Ukrainian troops are not encircled, although they face heavy fighting. Ukrainian defense lines have been fortified, ensuring significant resistance against the enemy's push to dominate strategic areas. In recent operations, the Defense Forces neutralized numerous occupiers, especially in the Pokrovsk direction. As Russia attempts to disrupt Ukrainian logistics, particularly in the Kursk zone, the Armed Forces continue to hold ground, maintaining their presence and readiness in critical defense sectors.
